Why is observational learning difficult to explain in terms of operant conditioning?

2 answers:

8 0

Could be cuz they're different. Observational learning extends the effective range of (both) operant and classical conditioning. During operant conditioning, one learns through (direct) experience. With observational learning you observe how it's done and then you do it. With children and even adults one way may not work.

(positive and negative reinforcement strengthen behavior; punishment, response cost, and extinction weaken behavior).

If I didn't explain it well lmk and I'll try again.

Answer:

Children may not only repeat bad language, but can also learn other negative behaviors, such as aggression, from watching adults. ... American psychologist, Albert Bandura, chose to focus on the how these aggressive behaviors are learned.

Use series to approximate the definite integral i to within the indicated accuracy. i = 1/2 x3 arctan(x) dx 0 (four decimal plac

Valentin [98]

The expression $\int\limits^{1/2}_0 {x^3 \arctan(x)} \, dx$ is an illustration of definite integrals

The approximated value of the definite integral is 0.0059

<h3>How to evaluate the definite integral?</h3>

The definite integral is given as:

$\int\limits^{1/2}_0 {x^3 \arctan(x)} \, dx$

For arctan(x), we have the following series equation:

$\arctan(x) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{x^{2n + 1}}{2n + 1}}$

Multiply both sides of the equation by x^3.

So, we have:

$x^3 * \arctan(x) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{x^{2n + 1}}{2n + 1}} * x^3$

Apply the law of indices

$x^3 * \arctan(x) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{x^{2n + 1 + 3}}{2n + 1}}$

$x^3 * \arctan(x) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{x^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}}$

Evaluate the product

$x^3 \arctan(x) = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{x^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}}$

Introduce the integral sign to the equation

$\int\limits^{1/2}_{0} x^3 \arctan(x)\ dx =\int\limits^{1/2}_{0} \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{x^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}}$

Integrate the right hand side

$\int\limits^{1/2}_{0} x^3 \arctan(x)\ dx =[ \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{x^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}} ]\limits^{1/2}_{0}$

Expand the equation by substituting 1/2 and 0 for x

$\int\limits^{1/2}_{0} x^3 \arctan(x)\ dx =[ \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{(1/2)^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}} ] - [ \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{0^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}} ]$

Evaluate the power

$\int\limits^{1/2}_{0} x^3 \arctan(x)\ dx =[ \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{(1/2)^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}} ] - 0$

$\int\limits^{1/2}_{0} x^3 \arctan(x)\ dx = \sum\limits^{\infty}_{n = 0} {(-1)^n \cdot \frac{(1/2)^{2n + 4}}{2n + 1}}$

The nth term of the series is then represented as:

$T_n = \frac{(-1)^n}{2^{2n + 5} * (2n + 4)(2n + 1)}$

Solve the series by setting n = 0, 1, 2, 3 ..........

$T_0 = \frac{(-1)^0}{2^{2(0) + 5} * (2(0) + 4)(2(0) + 1)} = \frac{1}{2^5 * 4 * 1} = 0.00625$

$T_1 = \frac{(-1)^1}{2^{2(1) + 5} * (2(1) + 4)(2(1) + 1)} = \frac{-1}{2^7 * 6 * 3} = -0.0003720238$

$T_2 = \frac{(-1)^2}{2^{2(2) + 5} * (2(2) + 4)(2(2) + 1)} = \frac{1}{2^9 * 8 * 5} = 0.00004340277$

$T_3 = \frac{(-1)^3}{2^{2(3) + 5} * (2(3) + 4)(2(3) + 1)} = \frac{-1}{2^{11} * 10 * 7} = -0.00000634131$

..............

At n = 2, we can see that the value of the series has 4 zeros before the first non-zero digit

This means that we add the terms before n = 2

This means that the value of $\int\limits^{1/2}_0 {x^3 \arctan(x)} \, dx$ to 4 decimal points is

$\int\limits^{1/2}_0 {x^3 \arctan(x)} \, dx = 0.00625 - 0.0003720238$

Evaluate the difference

$\int\limits^{1/2}_0 {x^3 \arctan(x)} \, dx = 0.0058779762$

Approximate to four decimal places

$\int\limits^{1/2}_0 {x^3 \arctan(x)} \, dx = 0.0059$

Hence, the approximated value of the definite integral is 0.0059

<h3>What is network server?</h3>

A network server is designed like a computer this is to help act as store for information where repository are sent.

It also give access to other devices such as disk space and printer where by they can send information from them through the Network server.

There are different network server depending on the function other examples are WAN and MAN

Therefore,
